Sure.
For the purposes of this poll,
Determinism would mean lack of meaning free-will. Hard or soft, quantum randomness can included in this one. Your actions are determined by factors outside your control.
Libertarian free-will would mean free-will without any constraints, you may chose anything regardless of things like genetics or social situations.
Compatibilism would be free will constrained by the things that determine your choices.
These are over simplified, but work for a layman's definitions I think. I'm sure one of our local philosophy majors could explain them better
